The dividing verse is clearly: “and it will come to pass that afterwards I will pour out, etc.” The second part begins with chapter 2:28 to the end of the Book.

It is even suggested occasionally that the National Socialist Party is now in the majority. And somewhere I read that even one of the professors of the Free University of Amsterdam had joined the Nazi Party. The facts in the case, however, appear to be, that the original N. S.
